As the Dodgers gear up for their season opener in Japan against the Cubs, ticket prices are soaring to astronomical heights, with some going for as much as $20,000! This raises some interesting questions about the value of attending live games versus watching from home. Is the experience of being at the Tokyo Dome worth that kind of money? What would you be willing to pay for a chance to see your favorite team play in such a unique setting?

Moreover, the spotlight will be on Shohei Ohtani, who is expected to draw massive crowds and attention. With comparisons being made to global superstars like The Beatles and Justin Bieber, how do you think this will impact the game atmosphere? Will the frenzy surrounding Ohtani distract from the actual gameplay, or will it elevate the experience for fans and players alike?

On another note, there are bold predictions circulating that the Dodgers may not win 100 games this season and could even face an early exit in the NLCS. Do you agree with this assessment? What factors do you think will play a crucial role in determining the Dodgers' success this year?
